When his mother died he was only
three years old, and he did not go to
the funeral. They told him that they
had laid his mother IN theground and
that she had gone to heaven. One
morning he was found digging under
the window. His sister Cathrine ask
ed him what he was doing, and he
said "Why, l am going to heaven to
find ma"
A member OF his church once remon-
strated with him for saying funny
things in the pulpit, and he remarked
that il he noticed them coming he
tried hard to steer clear OF them, but
sometimes they would pop out in
spite OF all that he could do.
Postmaster McLeer OF Brooklyn re-
ceived this reply once to a notifica-
